Analysis: Diddy in Doubles

The current doubles metagame revolves heavily around DLC characters, with most top teams having either a Cloud or a Bayonetta on them. Nowadays it's rare to see Diddys placing well in doubles besides Zero, Zinoto, and MVD, and even MVD usually switches to Cloud for doubles. While Diddy isn't the best doubles character by any means, he is still a valuable teammate when paired with the right partner.

Diddy vs. Luigi Matchup Guide

Luigi has always been considered to be one of Diddy Kong's harder matchups.

However, if you are well versed in the matchup, I believe that Diddy actually has an advantage against Luigi.
